Official Appalachian Trail

Guide Sets and Maps

Guide Sets

The official Appalachian Trail Guide Sets provide the only up-to-date, official descriptions of each part of the legendary

Appalachian Trail as it meanders more than 2,189 miles from Maine to Georgia. These guide sets are essential planning

materials for both long- and short-distance hikers to know where you are, what went here before you, how to get to

where you want to go, and how to get help if you need it. Packaged in a re-sealable plastic bag, these guides allow you to

choose whether to take a guide book or maps, or both, on the Trail.

Maps

The official Appalachian Trail maps are essential hiking materials for both thru and section hikers. Each map is focused on

the Appalachian Trail and overlaps with the neighboring maps, ideal for long-distance hikes and planning. The surround-

ing area and additional side trails are also included. An easy-to-use elevation profile shows the distance to the next

campsite or shelter, side trails, and water sources. For added interest, maps indicate road crossings, waterfalls, and scenic

areas. Maps are both water- and tear-resistant.

Proceeds from the sale of these maps go back into the protection of the Appalachian Trail experience through volunteer-

based conservation led by the ATC, a private, non-profit organization founded in 1925 to create this treasured footpath,

now part of the national park system.
